GI Joe Classified | Big Boa | Action Figure Review

Ойын-сауық

Welcome to the latest MoDXtra: Games & Collectibles action figure review. In this instalment we're taking a look at the new G.I. Classified Series Big Boa figure.
April's arrived and it's gone barmy for figure pre-orders! GI Joe Classified is no exception and Big Boa here one of many that's going to be hitting the channel in the coming weeks.
Big Boa's definitely an interesting one. I've mentioned a few times on the channel lately how I'm feeling more engaged by the wackier, more idiosyncratic side of GI Joe Classified and this guy falls firmly into that camp. "Camp" is the word too - just look at that outfit! LOL
This is a THOROUGH review. It will involve a brief unboxing of Big Boa, an overall view of the figure, and then some detailed thoughts around his aesthetic, articulation, and accessories. (My action figure review Triple A's LOL).
Its exciting to have a continued focus on GI Joe Classified on the channel, and its my hope that if you've been thinking of picking up a Big Boa of your own my thorough review will help you make your decision.
YO JOE!

    I think the head sculpt is great, since Big Boa is based on a canceled figure of Rocky BalBOA. Another great review! Can’t wait for more!

    I slipped in a little Rocky reference - did you clock it? The head’s not my cup of tea, but great to hear from someone it appeals to. The head’s too normal for me - I’m into the weird & menacing look of the helmet LOL 😂 Thanks for watching Pegwarmer - appreciate your continued support 🤘🏼

    Yes! The famous Bobby Dubs custom dios! He’s going to look great in your sport’s arena for sure! I wish I was more crafty - I envy your skills Bobby!

    I LOVE this guy. My brother had him as a kid.. I thought he was just ok… but for some reason.. this guy just keeps catching my eyes on the shelf. I think his blueberry pants would be a great color for a retro cobra trooper/officer. Great review… the other head sculpt is really good, but I just put it away.. gimme that helmet look! I posed him and made a sticker of him for my iPhone. 😂

    Awesome. I owned a Boa as a kid. In fact I seem to recall him being one of the easier characters to find over here in the UK back in the day. I could be misremembering that tho, but I know I had one. LOL 😂

    This might well be my top figure of 2024, not just Classified, but overall. Perhaps the 60th Anniversary Action Soldier might beat him, but Big Boa is right up there

    How funny - I was playing with my Infantry Soldier just earlier today! Ya gotta tell me though dude: what do you love about him so much? Give me your specifics man - would love to hear the details 🤘🏼

    @@MoDXtraGC we have so many Cobra army builders it’s nice to have a Joe one, technically Grunt is aswell, I love the Stalker/Grunt body mould the 60th Anniversary Soldier is on, the articulation, although the neck could look up and down a bit more, the Modular vest pieces are an interesting idea, sometimes they can fall out when playing with the figure, and the weapons are a bit loose when attached to the backpack, but the positives far outweigh the negatives, it’s great to have a Joe army builder and a decent one at that - I have 25 60th Anniversary Action Soldiers so far!

    He's a great figure and can get some really excellent fighting poses. I found the unmasked head sculpt pretty lackluster and I can't imagine ever using it.

    I don’t know much about boxing, but I did a little google and had some fun posing him up in a load of positions from an illustrated boxing guide I found. It was a good time because the focus was different to the usual shooty or slicey stuff I pose the Joes up in. The head tho… resigned to the bird box for me…

    Im not in a rush to pick him up right away....i think I will wait til he goes on sale since im not blowed away with how he appears. I was kinda hoping he'd be bigger and more bulky,i mean he looks like he has missed a few leg day ( legs looks a bit too thin ) Great unboxing and review 👍👏

    I could see how a bit more bulk would have benefitted the figure. It’s reminiscent of the vintage fig, but he’s been a beast in comic depictions. He’s not a glaring gap in the line up - nowt wrong with waiting and going for him if he drops in price if you’re on the fence. 🤘🏼

    @MoDXtraGC I loved the figure as a kid and now they make Joe's that aren't just Snake-eyes or Storm Shadow. Amazing time to be a Joe fan. Plus his hat is bad ass lol
